Absolute Great Teacher

Ding!

“Congratulations on completing your mission. Before you leave the Dragon Subduing Academy, you have recruited a great teacher. And because Murong Mingyue’s standard is extremely high and has reached the half-ancestor level, the reward would be 3x mysterious treasure chest. Please continue to work hard.”

The system congratulated him.

“Only three treasure chests despite her being at the half-ancestor level? Are you not being too cheap?”

Sun Mo’s lips twitched, wanting to seek more benefits. “How much are you looking down on a half-ancestor?”

“If you were only an ordinary great teacher, you would definitely be able to get five or even ten treasure chests if you headhunted someone at the near-ancestor level. But you are not. You are God Hands, a two-time champion, and an ancestor-level spirit runist. Your success is built on your superbly impressive foundation.”

The system explained.

It would be a miracle if an ordinary person could get a gold medal at the Olympics. But if you were the previous champion, it was only logical if you got it again.

“What do you mean? You mean it’s my fault because I’m too outstanding?”

Sun Mo frowned. “Why do I always feel that you are depriving me part of my rewards?”

“There’s no such thing!”

The system spoke righteously, but it was shocked in its heart.

(This Sun Mo is too sharp and can always complete missions with extreme difficulty. In the future, when I give out missions, I have to lower the amount of rewards, or I might have no more rewards to give out.)

(If that really happened, I would lose all face.)

One must know that Sun Mo had earned many top-rated rewards from the system in just a mere two years.

“Continue then!”

Sun Mo urged mentally.

“Master, you should eat something first. Little`E has gone to prepare the bathing water.”

Dong He cooked four small dishes and even brought a vat of Nu`er Hong over.

It was winter now, by drinking a little of this wine, one would be able to warm their bodies.

“Mn!”

Sun Mo nodded. Seeing how Dong He was busy serving him, he couldn’t help but sigh ruefully. Such a life was so corruptive.

Ding!

“Congratulations on completing the mission and successfully recruiting a personal student. Because Xianyu Wei’s aptitude is extraordinarily high, you are hereby awarded 3 mysterious treasure chests. Please continue to work hard.”

Ding!

“Congratulations on completing the mission and clearing the Dragon Subduing Palace. Moreover, you succeeded in vying against two secondary saints and a saint, eventually obtaining the Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture. Reward: 3x seven-colored diamond treasure chests. Please continue to work hard.”

Ding!

“Congratulations on successfully protecting Wanyan Mei and preventing her from being captured by the Dark Dawn. You protected the majority of students from being killed and the completion rate of the mission is very high. Reward: 2x mysterious treasure chests. Please continue to work hard.”

The system congratulated and gave him three waves of rewards.

The seven-colored diamond treasure chests were a tier higher than the mysterious treasure chests. Unless he was extremely unlucky, it was almost guaranteed that he would be able to open top-rated items from them.

Ding!

“Congratulations on saving the Dragon Subduing Academy from a ‘school-extermination’ crisis. You even obtained the approval of the dragon soul and formed a contract with it, becoming its comrade, thereby obtaining the Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture. Reward: 2x seven-colored diamond treasure chests.”

The system finished giving the rewards and went silent.

Sun Mo recalled that there was a mission to help change Wanyan Zhenghe’s personality and make the latter feel worship for him. Sadly, that little fellow died.

So what if one was a genius? If they died before maturing, they wouldn’t even be able to cause a single ripple in the long river of history. Hence, Sun Mo had to protect these nine little dolls under his tutelage well.

(Speaking of which, if I was captured by a snake demon, Ziqi and the others would surely be able to rescue me, right?)

Mn!

Given Li Ziqi and the sickly invalid’s intelligence, they wouldn’t go one by one and get killed stupidly.

Sun Mo then ate some food before asking Dong He some questions about the recent situation of his personal students. After that, Sun Mo soaked himself in the hot water.

As expected, living in a large villa was very comfortable.

Without needing to be instructed, Dong He and Little`E, who were usually as close as real sisters, suddenly started to vie with each other on who should scrub Sun Mo’s back.

“I have to be the one to do so!”

Little`E was very young. She directly stripped to her underwear and jumped into the pool.

Dong He ground her teeth but felt very helpless because she knew Sun Mo was a clean-living and honest great teacher. If she did the same thing, she would be driven out.

(Sigh! I’m so pretty. If I belonged to someone else, I would have long since given birth to two kids. However, you have never even touched my hands before.)

Dong He grumbled silently, feeling like an abandoned wife.

“I’ve sinned!”

Letting a young maid in her teens scrub his back… this act was just too corruptive. Sun Mo wouldn’t even dare to dream about this in the modern world.

In the pool, the warmth of the water cleansed the fatigue he felt.

When Sun Mo was about to fall asleep from comfort, he heard someone calling out joyfully.

“Teacher, you’ve returned!?”

After that, a plopping sound rang out as someone jumped into the pool. After that, a series of someone wading through the water happened, and Sun Mo felt a girl walking toward him and hugging him.

“Boohoohoo. Teacher, you’ve finally returned. I missed you so much!”

The papaya girl’s oval face leaned against Sun Mo’s chest as she rubbed against it, like a cat rubbing its face against its owner because it wanted to act coquettishly.

“Teacher!”

Li Ziqi was much more obedient. She stood beside him and respectfully greeted him. After that, she replaced Little`E and started to help Sun Mo scrub and knead his back.

Ancient Massaging Technique displayed!

Boom!

A genie appeared.

“Your mastery of the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands has grown!”

Sun Mo praised. In any case, before others, he would definitely not say that the name of this technique was the ‘ancient massaging technique’. There was no other reason. It was simply because the name was too meh.

“It is Teacher who has taught me well!”

Li Ziqi smiled sweetly. After three months, she finally heard her teacher praising her again. How happy.

Amidst the hot steam…

The gaze of the little sunny egg was as gentle as water. When her fingers came in contact with Sun Mo, she could sense his warmth. It was unknown why, but she suddenly felt that the colors of the world had brightened.

The days where she had to be away from her teacher were truly too unbearable.

“What are you doing?”

Sun Mo’s brows furrowed and caught hold of Lu Zhiruo’s hands that were roaming around his body.

“You are injured!”

The papaya girl felt some heartache and was inspecting the wounds.

“A minor injury.”

Sun Mo casually brushed this aside and moved Lu Zhiruo’s hands away. (If she continues hugging me, I probably have to do it with Dong He tonight to extinguish the fire in me.)

“Sun Mo, these two personal students of yours are really not bad!”

The dragon soul was astonished.

“You can tell?”

Sun Mo was taken aback.

“Che. No matter what, I stayed for several thousand years in the Dragon Subduing Palace. The number of extraordinary geniuses I’ve met are innumerable. For this girl with the quiet personality, she’s definitely extremely intelligent. As for the other one at the side, I can tell she’s from a very rich clan.”

The dragon soul analyzed.

“I didn’t expect you to have worked part-time as a diviner.”

Sun Mo’s lips twitched.

From his point of view, the dragon soul was just saying pleasant things to compliment itself. After all, it had to follow Sun Mo around in the future.

“Eh?”

Lu Zhiruo suddenly felt suspicious. She went nearer to Sun Mo and started sniffing.

“What are you doing?”

Sun Mo stretched out his finger and pushed it against the papaya girl’s forehead, gently stopping her from advancing closer.

“Teacher, why do you have an additional smell on you? Did you capture a new spiritual beast?”

Lu Zhiruo was curious. After that, she frowned. “However, from the smell, it seems that the spiritual beast is very old. Were you swindled by it?”

“…”

Sun Mo knew that Lu Zhiruo’s senses had always been sharp. (But isn’t this way too sharp?)

“Whose stupid kid is this? Does she even know how to speak? Do you believe that my little fists will punch her to death?”

The dragon soul was so angry that it almost coughed up blood.

The word ‘old’ was a taboo to it. It was a type of curse.

“Come out and say hi to them.”

Sun Mo instructed.

“Are you not afraid that the secret of you obtaining me gets leaked?”

The dragon soul was astonished. (Do you not even know a little bit of human psychology?)

(You best be careful, so you don’t suffer a huge disadvantage.)

“They are all people I trust.”

Sun Mo wouldn’t care about this. Speaking of which, Little Silver and the Wind King Divine Hall were considered great secrets too, not in any way smaller than the secret of him having this dragon soul.

“Alright, as you wish!”

Boom!

Multi-colored light immediately emitted from Sun Mo. After that, a five-clawed golden dragon suddenly appeared with a woosh and floated below the ceiling.

A majestic aura of an ancient ferocious beast instantly swept through the entire place.

“…”

Sun Mo was speechless. (It is just making an appearance, do you have to make things so dazzling?)

“Ah!”

Li Ziqi covered her mouth as she exclaimed in shock.

T…this was actually a giant dragon?

“Wow, a large dragon!”

Lu Zhiruo had an excited look on her face.

“…”

The face of the dragon soul was filled with black lines. When people of the world saw it, they would either be stunned or be screaming in terror. Yet, this young girl was like she saw a new pet.

(No, I have to scare her and make her cry. If not, where would the imposingness of my ancient dragon race go?)

Upon thinking of this, the dragon soul twisted its body and postured like a true dragon totem, wanting to draw lightning over. However, as it was posturing halfway, a crack could be heard as its bones fell out of alignment.

“Eh!”

The dragon soul froze on the spot.

There was no solution to this. It hadn’t been able to move around freely for tens of thousands of years. And now, the magnitude of the twisting movements was a little large, and it injured its muscles and bones.

“This dragon cannot make it. It seems to have injured itself!”

The papaya girl frowned and went over to Sun Mo. She covered her mouth with a hand and reminded him in a low voice. “Teacher, as expected, you were swindled by it, right?”

In the papaya girl’s heart, her teacher was very impressive. If such an old giant dragon hadn’t promised to give him something in return, her teacher probably wouldn’t have wanted it.

“You’ve seen a giant dragon before?”

On the contrary, Sun Mo was astonished looking at Lu Zhiruo’s reaction.

“Yup, I’ve even eaten one before.”

Lu Zhiruo licked her lips. “But this giant dragon is too old. Its meat would definitely taste like firewood.”

“Hehe!”

Sun Mo smiled and tousled the papaya girl’s hair. He didn’t continue asking.

No matter what sort of clan Lu Zhiruo was from, she was the personal student he liked the most.

“Teacher, could this giant dragon be that one from the Dragon Subduing Academy?”

Li Ziqi raised her eyebrows.

“Mn!”

Sun Mo surveyed the dragon soul. “But from now onward, it is the ultimate guardian, a school divine beast of our Central Province Academy.”

Si~

Upon hearing this, Li Ziqi involuntarily inhaled a breath of cold air.

There were rumors in the Nine Provinces saying that the Dragon Subduing Academy was guarded by an ancient giant dragon. Once the school met with an enemy invasion, it would appear and cast a dragonbreath to burn all invaders to death.

Some people even said that the reason why the Dragon Subduing Academy had such high accomplishments in the art of beast taming was because of the help from this giant dragon.

Now that the Central Province Academy had obtained it, their level would definitely increase.

“Ah? Isn’t it too old?”

Lu Zhiruo frowned and felt some worry.

The dragon soul naturally wouldn’t give a damn about being the guardian divine beast of whatever school. But after it heard the papaya girl’s words, it couldn’t bear it anymore. “Preposterous. Who dares to look down on me? Get her to stand out. I want to devour her alive.”
